I bought a commercial shop in Jul.2001 @ Rs. 60,000/-. Now I sold this shop in Feb. 2011 @ Rs. 8,10,000/-.
If I calculates my LTCG tax with indexation it will be around Rs. 1,46,230/- 20% of (Rs. 8,10,000 – (60,000 x 711 / 426)) + Edu. Cess. And if I calculates my LTCG tax without indexation it will be around Rs. 77,250/- 10% of (Rs. 8,10,000 – 60,000)) + Edu. Cess.
Can I pay the IT by the without indexation Or LTCG tax with indexation is compulsory.
What is the last date to pay tax & if i want to buy a property Around Dec. 2011, will i have to pay the tax and lateron it will be refunded.

LTCG tax with indexation is compulsory in your case. Option of 10% is available only on listed securities or unit or zero coupon bond. * Your advance tax installments falls due on 15/03/2011. By this date pay 100% tax payable. * If you invest in property, please note that it should be a residential house. In such case you need not to pay advance tax. * The conditions of Section 54F are required to be fulfilled by you for getting exemption from LTCG. * You have to open a Capital Gains Account with a Bank in which the amount of Rs 810000/- has to be deposited by you before 31.7.2011.
